# ✂️ Snippets

Small, self-contained fragments to copy straight into your solution — each with a two-line intro saying when to reach for it.

## Index

### rest/

| Snippet | When to reach for it |
|---|---|
| [Read all items from a large list — paging done right](rest/get-all-list-items-paged.md) | Any list past a few thousand items: `$top` caps at 5,000, `$skip` is ignored — follow `odata.nextLink`. Plus the error branch: `break` returns a partial list that looks complete |
| [Find externally / anonymously shared content via Search](rest/find-externally-shared-content-search.md) | Oversharing / Copilot-readiness audit: `ViewableByExternalUsers:1` surfaces files shared out, security-trimmed, one query |
| [Check another user's effective permissions](rest/check-another-users-effective-permissions.md) | Verify what a normal user can actually reach — from your own session, no test account; mind `Open` = `Low` bit 16 |
| [Upload a generated image as a list item attachment](rest/upload-generated-image-as-list-attachment.md) | Canvas charts, placeholder banners, QR codes — `AttachmentFiles/add` takes a raw `ArrayBuffer`; the item must exist first |
| [Write to Azure Table Storage without the SDK (SharedKeyLite)](rest/azure-table-storage-no-sdk-sharedkeylite.md) | Telemetry/counters from an Azure Function without `@azure/data-tables` bloat — Table-flavored SharedKeyLite signing, first-`=` connection-string parsing, 409 = fine |
| [Resolve a pasted library URL (web, library, folder)](rest/resolve-library-from-pasted-url.md) | `SP.Web.GetWebUrlFromPageUrl`, called on the CURRENT web, resolves the web of any URL in the tenant (other site collections too, 404 for a missing site); strip `Forms/…aspx`, prefer the `?id=` folder, take the first segment under the web as the library, check `BaseTemplate` 101 — all measured from the browser |

### cli/

| Snippet | When to reach for it |
|---|---|
| [SPO Management Shell one-liners](cli/spo-management-shell-one-liners.md) | Quick admin answers — storage top 20, external sharing, deleted sites, lock state — no script file needed |
